Gavin Degraw Tour 2019

Gavin Degraw Tour 2019 : Gavin Degraw made a splash into the mainstream with his first full length release “Chariot”. This record contained the immensely successful single “I Don’t Want to Be”, and was followed by a string of LPs and singles, which continued to validate the pop status he built from this hit.

Born 4 February 1977 in South Fallsburg, New York, US, Gavin began his music endeavors at the age of 8 singing and playing the piano. Though his parents were not involved in music (his father was a prison guard and his mother was a detox specialist) he did receive musical inspiration form his older brother Joey, who is also a musician in addition to a venue owner and founder of a record label.

Gavin’s older brother gave him the push to pursue music and
with him he formed several cover bands. Later on Gavin moved to
Massachusetts to attend Berklee School of Music. By the late 90s Degraw
rigorously began writing his own material and started to gain a
following through his frequent live performances. It was not long until
he was recognized by labels. Degraw eventually ended up signing a
contract with Clive Davis and put out his 2003 debut album “Chariot”
through J Records. The album was an instant critical and commercial
success and became even more popular once the hit single “I Don’t Want
to Be” was used as the theme song for the 2005 television show “One Tree
Hill”. With the resurgence of that single, “Chariot” reached platinum
status and charted No. 1 on the US Billboard Top Heatseekers.

Degraw’s next album did not come out until 5 years later.
Despite the wait, his self-titled sophomore release debuted at No.1 on
the digital sales chart and No.7 on Billboard’s Top 200 album chart.
Degraw wasted no time at all putting out his third full length album. He
recorded the entire album at the studio of his producer, Camus Celli,
in less than two weeks and released it on 6 May 2009 (making it less
than a year between the release of his last album). “Free” was not as
commercially successful as his last two albums; however, it still
managed to do commercially well, peaking at No. 19 on the US Billboard
200 charts.

Degraw switched record labels with the release of his fourth
album and contrary to “Free” he recorded the album in multiple studios
around the world, recruiting the help of producers Ryan Tedder, Butch
Walker, Eric Rosse and Ron Aniello. The album contained the widely
acclaimed single “Not Over You”, which became his first song to reach
the top spot on the Adult Pop Songs chart.

In 2012 DeGraw collaborated with pop star Colbie Cailat for
“Baby It’s Cold Outside” on her “Christmas in the Sand” album and did
another joint effort with her for the Grammy nominated song “We Both
Know”; which was featured in the “Safe Haven” soundtrack.

Degraw released his second album for RCA, “Make a Move” on 15
October 2013. Like his previous releases it did well on the charts
reaching No. 79 in the UK and climbing all the way to No.10 on the US
Billboard 200. The success of this album was followed by a US tour in
support of Train. In 2014 Degraw released his greatest hits album
“Finest Hour: The Best of Gavin DeGraw”. This compilation featured a
well distributed mix of material including newer songs such as “You Got
Me”, which was originally written for the “Dolphin Tale 2” movie.
